Thank you to everyone who purchased from Webb Ivory again this year. Your support is always greatly appreciated by the school and the children as it allows us to buy extras we would not otherwise be able to afford. Thank you also to Charlotte Boradley and Carol Sinclair for all their help in sorting the orders.

Eco bags are now available to purchase in school. They look fantastic and the logo was designed by one of our pupils. Click on the link below to get an order form. Stocks are limited, so don’t delay!
The Parent Council are holding their first BINGO NIGHT on Thursday and have made a request for donations of homebakes. They always have tea and refreshments during the evening, therefore could parents/grandparents etc. donate homebakes to the school office on Thursday morning. Thank you on behalf of Alison Yule.

There has been a great response to this trip, however a few seats are left on the coach for the trip on Saturday 8th November. Not only is it a great day out but all our shoppers (because we are part of a coach trip) receive a 10% discount card that can be used within most stores within MacArthur Glen. The coach picks up at 7.30am from the Village Hall; 7.35am from the Ploughman; 7.55am at Bridge of Dee and 8.10am from Portlethen. The coach leaves MacArthur Glen at 6.00pm to return to Aberdeen. Should anyone be interested, please call Julie Thain on 07760 363 090.

Our Crossing Patrol Lady, Molly Chalmers is off sick at the moment. We are unable to get a replacement so there will be no crossing patroller on North Deeside Road until further notice. We wish Molly a speedy recovery.
I still have 3 Spree Books in school available for sale. If you forgot to buy a book, or want an additional one, please e-mail me b.polson@culter.aberdeen.sch.uk Books cost £23.00 each. They will be on sale until Friday 7th November.
Well done to everyone who earned a seat at the much coveted Top Table.
The grand sum of £371.56 was raised on ’our casual dress for charity’ day at the end of last term. Children were invited to wear pink or blue in support of Breast Cancer and Cancer Research. As you can see in the ‘Top Table’ picture above, various shades of those colours, and very interesting hats were worn. The children love these days and in turn worthwhile charities are helped by their donations.
Thank you to all the parents who made an effort dressing their children up for the day.
Can you help the Fundraising Committee? Their cupboards are bare and to enable Bingo Nights to continue, they desperately need donations of non-perishable groceries and raffle prizes. Each class will be collecting as much as possible from Monday 29th September until Friday 3rd October. Your child can hand items into their class teacher any morning next week. Please have a good rummage in the back of your cupboards and help to keep this great fundraiser going.
Looking forward to receiving your donations!
Thank you.
A huge THANK YOU to all who purchased spree books through the school. We made a whopping £984 profit from the sales! With some of the money raised we have ordered a Plasma Screen which will be situated in the school foyer displaying information for pupils and parents.
Also, details of an Autumn Concert can be found on the Community Pages or by clicking here.
We have just received another cheque from our webshop. The total commission received to date is now £160.92. A huge thank you to everyone who has taken the time to shop online via our site.
It’s easy to buy from our webshop and it is easy for us to generate a steady stream of income. Each purchase generates on average £2.50, so as little as 20 purchases a week could result in over £2500 for us each year! The ‘Features’ section contains comparisons between defferent retailers for various services and products, including Music/Film and travel, helping you to save money whilst you shop.

Oldest and only pupils have been issued with a Spree Book today. This is a great fundraiser for our school and a savings guide to participating businesses in Aberdeen. Families only need to use one or two vouchers to save more than the cover price. This year the Spree Card is inside the book and does not need to be activated, only a signature on the back of the card is required. If you wish more than one book for family and friends, please give your order to your child. Payments and unsold books need to be handed into school by w/b 9th September.
Thank you for supporting Culter School.
On 6th June, Karen Cochlan, one of our Primary 6 teachers completed the ‘Ben Nevis Challenge’, climbing 4,406ft, raising £105.00. Karen has chosen to donate this money to ‘Marie Curie’, the fund chosen by Allan Graham’s family.
